After many years of travelling all over and to many places one would have thought that we'd have it cracked by now - the logistics that is. The bags we use and the routines of the airports. Wrong! This trip involves two legs travelled on Ryanair. Attracted to the mode by the price one is aware that everything you do with these guys will cost you money. For instance the one bag we are putting all our stuff in costs more to place in the hold than it costs to put our bums in the seats (After all Ryanair does promise "cheap seats" it's just all the rest of the experience that costs money.)
So starting to pack I went to the website to see about the carryon luggage rules. Now the poop hit the fan Ryanair's carryon baggage size is about 1.5 inches smaller than the industry standard. Another tale involves Doreen's woes when trying to find the perfect carryon bag - she found one after years of experimentation with every size imaginable and now the bloody thing is too big!!
CRISIS.......So we think we have the problem solved, I moved my stuff into another backpack and a small manbag and she is off, at this very minute checking out local bag purveyors. Armed with the measurements she will find one, but will it be to her taste and become a favourite or will it be just another bag to put "stuff" in?
